So the breastmilk face bath didn’t work? Damn. I was hoping you had happened upon a new remedy. You don’t me to tell you about the feedings where my milk ended up all over my girl’s face, my face, the couch, the wall…..OMG, it was crazy.
The 4pm weeping, the night time dread….most of us have been there, and I hate that no one really REALLY prepares us. I wonder if it’s because, when we are pregnant, we are so annoyed by all those kind-hearted bitches who want to tell us ALL ABOUT their experience? So, that being said, I feel I must say this:
It will get awesomely-easy soon. I mean, you will be able to shower, put on some make-up, fit into skinny clothes, have a REAL conversation with Adam, all while bathing, dressing, and feeding Sam, and all of a sudden it will smack you in the face: “I’m DOING IT. I’m getting the hang of being so many different people at once!”

Just a shout out that you are STILL hilarious… I’m one of your single, childless readers, and I’ve always wondered “if I’m this tired now, how could I ever be a new mom?”

I like the baby talk! No complaints here.

Ditto on loving hearing about the baby – it makes us happy to have you bring your particular brand of funny to this. And, while I totally understand if you’re not comfy with pictures, but I think I speak for many when I say MORE MORE, can we have some MORE please?

Sweetie, talk about the baby every dang day! We lurve it! And my doctor told us to squirt breastmilk into my daughters eyes for eye infections and blocked ducts, so hey I’ve been there. It’s a great moment. A moment when you realize that you don’t believe in dignity anymore…

Boob juice in the eye–totally. Never heard about up the nose. I’m intrigued.

And OH PLEASE you need to keep talking about her because helLO your life is now turned upside down and she consumes all your energy so what else are you going to talk about for a while? Bring on The Bebe! With more pictures. . .:-)

Shooting milk up her nose. I’m peeing my pants laughing! Does that really work??

Glad you are enjoying mommyhood so much. And I, personally, love the Sam stories. Keep ‘em coming!

was just in my co. breakroom and got my first “sleep now while you can” advice from a woman in there.

I actaully pushed back referencing what you had written, your comparision sleep deprivation of those with kids and without, and she had to agree with you. Ha! Take that, breakroom lady.

Thanks!

I didn’t mean to mock your status as mommyblogger (ok, I will stop saying that term. I actually like “mom blogger.” Is that better to you?)

I love that you talk about Sam all the time. It is wonderful to see you grow and stretch as a person and I love the joy you have with your daughter. It explains a lot about why people ever do it twice, which is something I hadn’t been able to figure out til now.

Hey, that place that you go to when you click my name on my comment above? That was a typo. Sorry about that.
